Chapter 77: Crazy Shopping
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Romo was also a little surprised when he learnt about the two clansmen of the Treis family clan being intercepted and killed along the way. He had originally had the idea of getting Karuman to take action and kill those two fellows, but he had been a little hesitant. After all, they were just two fellows with very low cultivation levels, and it would be a little insulting to send Karuman directly. Then, just when Romo was struggling with the decision, he heard the news. This also spared Romo the headache.
On this day, Ron was packing up. As he was leaving the next day to participate in the Blue Jade Trial, he had to prepare some things. When Romo knew about this, he took a look at his current Faith Points. He had not used the Faith Points during this period of time, so he had already accumulated 120,000 Faith Points. He looked at the few half-priced merchandise item quotas he had accumulated earlier. It was time to use them now. If there were any strengthening tools, it would be even better. He could give them to Ron now to use, so that he would have a greater chance of success. If Ron were to leave the house, even if Romo were to obtain the strengthening tools, he would not be able to give them to him remotely. Now, if Romo wanted to give physical items to Ron, he would have to do so within his own house. It would not do if Ron were to leave the house. After he had left, the most he could do was to send a message in his dream. Romo used all the remaining eight quotes for half-priced items and immediately looked at them carefully.
[Magical Power Aptitude + 100 for all family members. It is priced at 100,000 Faith Points.]
[One random platinum-tier magical item. It is priced at 60,000 Faith Points.]
[A random level-7 Magic Core. It is priced at 30,000 Faith Points.]
[One Hundredfold Cultivation Speed Talisman. It is priced at 1,000 Faith Points.]
[Protective Formation Enhancement Talisman. It is priced at 10,000 Faith Points.]
[Family Clan’s Forbidden Ground Construction Talisman. It is priced at 200,000 Faith Points.]
[A random gold-tier cultivation technique. It is priced at 30,000 Faith Points.]
[One high-grade Mysterious Treasure Chest. It is priced at 10,000 Faith Points.]
Romo took a look and realized that he liked every item. He wanted them all. Unfortunately, he did not have that many Faith Points. The first item was the Family Clan Forbidden Ground Construction Talisman. How could he have 200,000 Faith Points? Even if he had them, he had more and better things to buy. Family clan’s Forbidden Ground? What was the use? Also, there was the family clan’s magical power aptitude +100, which was priced at 100,000 Faith Points. Although he could afford it, after buying this, he could forget about anything else. There was also a level-7 Magic Core, which was the magic nucleus of a magical beast. This was a good item, but he had no use for it currently. As for the rest, every single one of them was a very good item. Romo bought them all directly.
After buying, Romo immediately used the platinum-tier magical item. This platinum-tier magical item was of a higher tier than a gold-tier magical item. The items were divided from low to high: bronze, silver, gold, platinum, and diamond. Ron’s Ice Wand was a gold-tier magical weapon. It was already a very powerful existence, so platinum-tier was naturally even stronger.
[Ding… Received low-grade platinum-tier magical item, Spirit Turtle Magic Robe.]
[Spirit Turtle Magic Robe: This is a powerful magic robe. Legend has it that a Divine Mage had fought for three days and three nights before killing a powerful spirit turtle. Then, he sealed the spirit turtle’s soul in this magic robe, giving this magic robe the powerful defense of a spirit turtle. In addition, it has the special effect of concealing aura and simulating aura.]
Damn, it’s actually a defensive magical item. This is simply great.
Seeing that the magical item had actually turned out to be a defensive item, Romo was instantly overjoyed. This was because, compared to magical weapons, defensive items were even more precious. After all, a Mage himself placed great importance on attack, but was a profession that studied little on self defense. In this way, no matter how strong one was, one would be easily killed. As such, having a life-saving item was very necessary. Therefore, even if many Magi did not have an offensive magical weapon, they would have to first get a defensive one to ensure their survival.
Moreover, this was a platinum-tier defensive magic robe, which had once been used by a Divine Mage. Such a good item did not even exist when Romo was alive. It was simply extravagant. Now that Ron had the Ice Wand and this Spirit Turtle Magic Robe, one for attack and one for defense, it was a perfect combination.
[Item: A random gold-tier cultivation technique]
[Ding… Received medium-grade, gold-tier enhancement-type magical power, Skyfiend Three Transformations!]
[Skyfiend Three Transformations! A medium-grade, gold-tier enhancement-type magical power. Upon use, it can strengthen the body and greatly increase one’s strength for a short period of time.]
Damn, an enhancement-type magical power, and an explosive one at that. It can greatly increase one’s strength in a short period of time. This is simply a sharp weapon to kill and seize treasures.
Seeing that it had turned out to be such a magical power, Romo was very happy. Imagine, if two persons originally had almost equal strength, and one were to use the enhancement-type magical power, his strength would instantly increase by one level, and he would immediately be able to crush the other party. In addition, it could also be used to protect one’s life. If one were to encounter an enemy whose strength far surpassed one’s own, he could also use this magical power to strengthen himself. If he could not defeat the other party, he would at least be able to escape.
Romo had one such skill when he was alive. It was called the Blood Explosion Technique. It was also a magical power that could increase one’s strength for a short period of time. However, to use this magical power, one would have to expend one’s own blood essence. After using it, one would be weak for a period of time. The side effects were very strong. Although this Skyfiend Three Transformations cultivation technique also had side effects, they were much milder than those of the Blood Explosion Technique. Furthermore, the increase in strength was also much greater than the Blood Explosion Technique. This was the advantage of high-grade cultivation techniques.
The most important thing was that the Skyfiend Three Transformations had a great advantage. One could use this magical power if one was of the Great Mage realm. For example, the Blood Explosion Technique could only be used by one who was of the Great Archmage realm. As its consumption was too great, if used by a Great Mage, it would directly consume all the blood essence in one’s body. Thus, after using this magical power, one would die directly. This was equivalent to suicide. As the consumption by the Skyfiend Three Transformations was small, even a Great Mage could use it.
With both offensive and defensive weapons, and also an explosive type of magical power now, Romo believed that Ron would definitely reap great gains from participating in the Blue Jade Trial. At the very least, he would not have to worry about his life being at risk. As several items in a row had turned out to be good stuff, Romo was in a good mood. He immediately looked at the next tool.
“Use the Protective Formation Enhancement Talisman!”
[Ding… Protective Formation has been successfully enhanced. Received a special ability.. Counterattack!]
